Aro Recommended Inside Man

 

USA 2006, 129 minutes

Genres: Suspense/Crime / Heist, Hostages & Terrorism, Policier

Feat. Denzel Washington, Clive Owen, Jodie Foster, Willem Dafoe, Christopher Plummer, Chiwetel Ejiofor

 

Aroview: Proficient, personalised heist thriller from dir. Spike Lee (25TH HOUR) in which a smooth and cold super-crim (Owen) engineers the robbery of the Manhattan Trust Bank in New York with the aid of several dozen hostages, but bringing down upon himself the world-weary veterans of the NYPD (Washington and Ejifor).

It also turns out the robbery ruffles the feathers of a powerful safe-deposit box holder (Plummer), with secrets dating back to the WW2 Nazi era, who sends in a troubleshooter (Foster) to monitor the situation. Slickly produced, with an ample dosage of suspense, this entertains most with sparks of ethnic politics and humour, coupled with the same slightly-crazed dialogue he brought to CLOCKERS.
